In April 2015 the Government established the Ebbsfleet Development Corporation (EDC), a new Urban Development Corporation with development management planning powers to deliver a new Garden City at Ebbsfleet in North Kent.
Ebbsfleet Garden City; where London meets the Garden of England, is an exciting new community of up to 15,000 homes and 30,000 jobs served by a full range of services and amenities focused around Ebbsfleet International Station, and embracing the existing communities of Swanscombe, Northfleet, Greenhithe and the adjacent towns of Dartford and Gravesend.
Ebbsfleet Garden City is gathering momentum with six house builders now on site. Strongly supported by central government the Ebbsfleet Development Corporation’s (EDC) Board has set out a vision for the first new Garden City for 100 years and the largest new town in 45 years.
EDC is working collaboratively with public and private sector partners and local stakeholders; investing up to £310 m in forward funding infrastructure and unblocking and accelerating development at pace.
We are now recruiting to the new post of Project Manager – Transport and Infrastructure Delivery. Reporting to the Director of Projects, the successful candidate will lead on all aspects of delivery of our transport and infrastructure projects for the Corporation, working across the EDC and with external partners. The Project Manager will ensure that robust business cases along with deliverable programme plans and risk management arrangements are in place and work with consultants and stakeholders to ensure that projects are delivered at pace.
